* sisters Like “AUNT JANE” BARKS $9,000 FROM HER BiG 1INCH MOUTH War Department's New Baby, Greatest in the World, Pleases Officials. “Aunt Jane” in all right, 8! ew baby. She Is the biggest bo world has yet seen and when she fauawks something drops seven miles or $0 away. Drops #0 hard, too, they say, that anything hit would never bother about answering back. Im the Navy and the Coast Artillery they are real proud of “Aunt Jane” to- Gay. She ts their latest pet. Some day, faybe soon, they will have a still big- Ser infant, of course; but just at pres- ent “Aunt Jane” satisies all their long- tngs. They tried out her singing voice @t Sandy Hook yesterday and she beat afl records. Lieut.-Col, FE, B. Babbitt and Brig.- Gen. Crozier, head of the War College, who are prominent among “Aunt Jane's” principal nurses, said after the trials that Uncle Sam was entitled to be proud of his latest. No other coun- try bas an infant {ike it and its voice beats all expectations, they said, Just in her birthday olothes “Aunt Jane” weighs fifty tons. Her cradle weighs 708 tons; 236 tons for the carriage part proper, 262 tons for the part that Makes {t move and 160 tons for the part that saves it from toppling over when baby lets loose one of her yells. For all that, “Aunt Jahe” is so tractible that beth she and her pretty cradle can be managed with one hand. AUNT JANE’S MOUTH IS FOUR- TEEN INCHES WIDE. But the special feature about “Aunt Jane” 1s that her tue round mouth {@ fourteen inches across, Never an- Other child of the sort had a mouth more than twelve inches, It has taken years to add those extra two inches aod the parents themselves were not eure of their success until they saw “Aunt Jane" at play. Now there is no doubt, and ittle “Aunt Jane” will go down to take care of the Panama Canal. Others will be put in charge of Hono- Julu and the harbor at Manila. The biggest warships in the world, the New York, launched the other day, and the Texas, building at Newport News, are to carry other of “Aunt Jane's” little eleters to help take care of the United States generally and keep the bogeyman away. Every time “Aunt Jane" speaks she costs Uncle Sam about $1,500, to say Rothing of the cost of her maintena which is a deal more. Of the $1 fust half, or $760, Is the cost of “ 35s: Block 8 OPEN SATURDAY EVENIN Newark, N. J., Store, 49 French . Carved top and claw feet.

For ‘Aunt Jane" cost $9,000 and can only let go about 260 squawks before she gets} #0 hoarse she can never squeal again. But that ts declared to be “Aunt Jane's” best feature. On the official registers she will be entered as the new fourteen-inch gun and there will be a side note saying she would make war cheaper, since the twelve-inchers, the biggest guns in existence, would not live for more than about seventy shots, or about one-fourth what the fourteen- inch will stand. SIX SHOTS FIRED IN 3 MINUTES 45 SECONDS. In the presence of Brig.-Gen. Crozier, Lieut.-Col. Babbitt, Major-Gen. Barry and Brig.-Gen.
